Did you know Erwin High has student-run School-Based Enterprises? These businesses are part of our Occupational Course of Study (OCS) curriculum, giving students hands-on experience running the entire business. From the names and business concepts to the graphic designs, our students are the creative minds behind it all! 🙌
🌈 TIE IT UP
Launched last year, Tie It Up recently went live online! Scan the QR code included in this post to shop their colorful tie-dye creations.
And here’s some BIG news: Tie It Up was selected as an SBE Showcase business from across North Carolina! Our students will present and sell their products at the 75th Annual Conference on Exceptional Children in Greensboro later this month. Talk about taking Warrior talent on the road! 🎉
☕ WARRIOR GROUNDS
Our newest business serves a variety of hot and cold drinks, including coffee and dirty sodas! Students occasionally have the opportunity to purchase drinks after lunch, and their next chance is:
📅 Friday, October 30
🎃 👻🥤 After all four lunches
💵 $3 per drink—CASH ONLY!
Watch for signs around school announcing opportunities to grab a dirty soda or hot coffee, and remember to bring your cash!
Whether you’re sipping something delicious or sporting some tie-dye, you’re supporting students as they build skills, confidence, and businesses of their own. ❤️🤍
#WeAreErwin #StudentEntrepreneurs #TieItUp #WarriorGrounds
For fueling our Warriors each and every day!
With great food and cheer,
They shine all the year—
And serve up some love on each tray! 🍎
